Imperial Rugby: GW11 Preview

We asked Imperial’s 1^st and 2^nd XV rugby teams how their respective season’s were going ahead of the 11^th GW of the season.

1^st XV Team Captain – Luke Butland

The 1^st XV’s season so far has been remarkable. So far, we are undefeated in the league, having scored a total of 197 points and conceding 25. Our highlights include a stellar 43–10 win against RUMS  and a dominant 93–5 win over GKT.  At the top of the table and with the most possible points to achieve, our promotion is looking stronger every day. Varsities are coming up this term, and we are looking to continue our form and make it the best season possible. 

2^nd XV Team Captain – Tom Martin 

The 2^nd XV have had a great start to the season with the team winning 3 out of 3 league games with a bonus point in each. The team won their first game in the cup against Surrey before suffering a narrow but very hard fought loss to Reading in the next round. The team is currently leading the scoreboard of the South Eastern Tier 3 with UCL. The second half of the season is thereby critical to win the league title and promotion.
